Yep not suggesting our big players play 90 mins for one second. Just keep their legs fresh

 

[If I die in the Kippax St]

I would like to see palmer starting again. Probably Lewis aswell

I’d like to see palmer pass the ball when there is a nailed on tap in for a team mate

Appropriate minutes for as many as possible.

Apart from Ruben, I think we have a full squad available so bring them to perfection for another rag bashing !!

 

[bellsouth]

I’d like to see Kev start, he needs to find some form

 

[LongsightM13]

Jones is a dirty bastard, he will send them out to kick us

 

[The Lightbowne Cowboy]

Rodri, Foden, Kev, Haaland and Walker should be nowhere near this game imo. Save them to destroy the horrible bastards on Saturday.

 

[lionheart]

Walker, Rodri & Mahrez should definitely be saved for the Manure game.

 

[Ali B's Heel]

Ortega
Rico Stones Ake Gomez
KDB Kalvin Foden
Palmer Haaland Alvarez

All going well, take KDB, Foden and Haaland off after 45/60 minutes

 

[Man-chester copperpot]

How many tickets did we get for this?

 

[ninjamonkey]

Pick the team for United then those not starting play this and fill whatever gaps are left.

Ortega
Lewis
Akanji
Laporte
Gomez
Phillips
Gundogan
Foden
Palmer
Grealish
Alvarez

Foden off after 60 ready for the derby.

Despite how shite Southampton are this season sitting bottom , you feel the team and their fans will be bang up for this. A quarter final game at home against a us.

I’m sure we’ll get the job done but they’ll put in a big effort I reckon.

Can't remember the last time I saw the Saints fans bang up for anything, I've never known a stadium to so reliably empty out as soon as a 2-goal lead is established.

 

[MrCheeseGrater]

Should be fairly easy, they will be concentrating on staying up so don't think ward prowse etc will play. Might see lavia, Bazunu and edozie get some minutes so will be interesting to see how they fare against us

yeah, after us they travel to Everton on Saturday... I'm sure they will be focused more on that

 

[shemnel]

i'd like to see Palmer get another start.

You've obviously not been to the Etihad then ;)

 

[Fred_Quimby]

This will be the usual, 11 behind the ball, clog us to death and a weak ref who will do f..k all.

We will still win though. Just a bit worried about the injuries.

 

[LongsightM13]

Looks likely we’ll be facing Lavia and Edozie, plus possibly the Croatia forward Orsic who they’ve just signed
